Just got an email from NAR. You probably all received it, as well, asking us to respond to CBS. The only reason I'm posting on this? NAR has decided to chime in. Here's my response (and, yes, I did click "send"):
"A little slow on the uptake, NAR? Where have you been all day (and last night)?
I will not respond to CBS, or Ms. Stahl, because I think that's what they want and we would be playing into their hands. I don't need to defend what I do for a living. I provide a service that my clients value enough to pay me.
The report was obviously quite biased and poorly researched. Not too many people actually saw it....Poor 60 Minutes....it's a dinosaur. The fact that NAR is requesting it's members contact CBS is actually quite bizarre to me. Are you really that scared?
I would encourage that you not respond because it was so frivolous and not up to the standards of the 60 Minutes I recall. That would be why I stopped watching....10 years ago. I have heard from NOONE today who saw this report. Contacting CBS only lends credence to the report by NAR members. We're the only ones who seem to have watched it!
Enough said.

Fellow "Relibbers"......we do not need to give this any more lip service on this forum, to CBS, or NAR. I did add a few things here that I didn't send to NAR but wished I had. Nonetheless, I got my point across to NAR.
No Comments requested or required. This horse is d....e.....a....d......DEAD.
Dancing with the Stars is on!! Gotta Go!
Yours Truly,
